BRoTHERLY LOVE,

90 Abraham went out of Egypt Every
rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold" How
long the pilgrims tarried in Egypt we are
not told. They doubtless found good mar
ket for the product of their 6ocks and herds,
as we'll as an abundance of grain and pastur-
age. They entered Canaan again in the
southern section of the country, and trav-
eled northeast, occupying at intervals the
unoccupied grazing lands, till they reached
Bethel, where they had previously encamped,
and where Abraham had built an altar for
the worship of COP. Here Abraham again
"called upon the name of JEHOVAH" He
re-established the worship of the one only
living and true God. We have no account of
his having worshiped in Egypt. But GoD
had protected and prospered him there.
Thanksgiving was due for the Divine provi-
dence and protection, and forgiveness was
needed for his own faithlessness and false
hood. His nephew Lot, who had accompa-
MED him from Haran, and in the journey to
Egypt had also increased his possessions of
"fiocks and herds and tents" So numerous
had their hocks become that the country
could not supply them with sufficient food
and water. Besides the inhabitants of the
country greatly restricted their privileges in
the use of the pasture lands. This situation
was the occasion of strife between the ser
wants of the two masters. Each, no doubt,
was eager to occupy first the new found
fields, and disappointment and resentment
would lead to quarrels. In this emergency
the character of Abraham is exhibited in
way that commands respect and admiration.
Greatness of soul, rather than fear is mani
tested. To put an end to the strife between
their herdsmen, Abraham proposed to Lot
that they should separate, as strife was un-
seemly between men who stood in the rela-
ton of brethren, and left him to choose his
ground. He might have claimed the right of
choice himself, being the elder and perhaps
the chief of the tribe or head of the family,
and, besides, he might have been the foster
father of his orphaned nephew; but he left
the whole matter to Lot. He was the mag
unanimous man of faith, and for the sake of
peace, and that brotherly love might be main
tanned, he recommended the separation and

Richard Wooley, Sr., passed to his rest,
Dec. 10, 1886, from his late home, Walnut
Hills, Cincinnati, at the age of IS years,
month and IA days. The following sketch
of his life is, in part, condensed from the
biographical sketch in Cincinnati Past and
Present: Richard Wooley was of English
descent, the son of Judah and Elizabeth
Wooley. He was born Nov. 5, 1911, in Mon
mouth county, N. j., where the Wooley an
cestors settled at an early day, and near the
now noted summer resort, Long Branch. He
was left an orphan at the age of eleven. He
worked on farm until he was fifteen, when
he became an apprentice to firm of tanners
and shoemakers, at Farmingdsle, Monmouth
county. His energy and industry were early
manifest, and after his time was served, be
continued in their employ as journeyman a
little more than year. He had received as
wages, eighty seven and a half cents per day.

A LsNIENT VERDICT.
An Assertion That the Jury In the Watt
Schwartz Case Erred, IL ut All. on the
Side of Mercy to the Culprits.


An Assertion That the Jury In the watt
Schwartz Case Erred. IL Mt All. on the
Side of Mercy to the Culprits.
Commenting on the verdict of inn
prisonment for life pronounced by the
jury against the prisoners on trial for
the murder of Express Messenger
Nichols, the Chicago Herald says:
1t was the instant and unanimous
verdict of the jury that tried Watt and
Schwartz that both were guilty of the
atrocious murder of Kellogg Nichols.
Such a conviction was forced. prob
ably, upon the minds of most persons
who followed the trial as reported in
the newspapers. The verdict was i'm
prisonment for life. If these men were
guilty the death penalty might more
properly have been pronounced upon
them, for the killing of brave man en-
gagged in the faithful performance of a
duty, defending his trust fearlessly and
aggressively until stricken down by
vulgar robbers who, for protection.
probably, from the consequences of
their crime, became assassins, was not
only an actrocious, it was also despi-
cable crime. The mere robbery would
have justified the imposition of a long
term of Imprisonment upon the Offend
ers. The crime deepened into murder,
is not sufficiently condemned, the
assassins are not adequately punished,
short of the gibbet. 1t is odd, then.
that where there was such unanimity
of conclusion as to the guilt OF the
accused and sentence which
might be regarded as merciful
under the circumstances, any sug-
gestion should be offered that the
punishment named by the jury is ex-
treme. The prisoners are entitled to
the usual review, but upon the finding
of their guilt, finding generally con-
ceded to accord with the fact, they are
entitled to no consideration whatever.
If guilty, they may thank their stars
that the jury has been so lenient as to
give them a life sentence.
The case seems to have been fairly
tried. The State was Jealous and indie
fatigable. The defense was the strong
est that could be made. 1t is highly
improbable that the jury has erred. To
seek sympathy for the prisoners while
admitting their guilt is ridiculous. In
the horrible crime there wasn't single
mitigating circumstance.

among sIrangers-nrst under the ROOF
of q distant relative of her father, a
stern man who considered the homeless
orphan burden, and ere long sent her
to the cloister of the Sacred Heart,
where she might fit herself for her
future vocation of governess.
This one year had been to her as an
oasis in the desert-a brief rest in a
fowery garden, an asylum of peace
and love. The bitterest tears she had
shed since her mothers death had fall
en- at parting with the pious sisters.
When placed by her relative as govern
ess in the house of the wealthy mer-
chant she was i'll from homesickness
for the silent cloister. Ere long the
exacting duties of her position had left
no time for unayailing regrets and
tears.
Il was not fitted for the place, 4"
she said. Il soon found that 1 had
much, very much, to learn. Doctor
Elbthal, if you would make me happy,
give me some instruction during these
days l remain with you. Yon will not
have to complain of any lack Of indus
try in your pupil "
More than delighted to become the
young girls tutor, Arnim drew up a
programme of study which was strictly
adhered to on both sides. Marianne
was in raptures at an arrangement
which would keep the young thing
busy and relieve her OF the hapless
task of initiating French girl into the
mysteries OF All art in which only Ger
man women were fitted to excel
Desiree grew happier day by day,
and ere long reveled in the natural
joyousnesS of youth. She blossomed
out like a flower that has found its
native soil. A sunbeam had entered
the doctors house. 1t must be coaXed
to remain and brighten the coming
winter Brief as had been its stay IN
der his roof, Arnim felt that without its
presence, life would be desolate. He
grew restless if for a little time he
missed the young girls light step fit
ting past his door-if the soft, rythmed
melody of her voice ceased for the mo-
ment to penetrate his study.
The Abilene reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1883-1888, 1887-05-05

but Desiree, quickly equipped as sol.
der on the march, would be ready in q
moment.
| Evenings the doctor often read aloud.
finding in Desiree the most interested
of listeners. While Marianne was al
ways interrupting with irrelevant ques-
tons and remarks, Desiree would now
and then let her work fall and gaze silent
and intent into his face. To Arnim the
glance of those eyes was more eloquent
than words. Still, when he closed the
book, it was delight to listen to the
young girls lively remarks and COM
ments, TO answer her questions. The
more charming the conversation, the
more sure it was to be speedily ended
by Marianne's peevish, authoritative
announcement that it was time for bed.
While serious reading of the clas-
| sizes formed part of the course of
study, there was also time for much
fugitive poetry and romance. 1t seemed
to the doctor as if. in taking into his
hands the guidance and development of
this youthful mind, he had found his
life-work.
The winter passed like a dream.
Gradually Desiree mastered those little
household tasks which concerned
Arnim's personal comfort, and which
Marianne, in her many cares, either
forgot or performed irregularly. She
prepared his morning and evening
coffee, arranged his study table. hunted
up the gloves which Ivan mislaid, think
ing them entirely useless. Marianne
had never taken into account her
cousins little peculiarities and bachelor
ways. Desiree found them out and
humored them.
Marianne's care fos him was like
every thing else she did, in accordance
with a fixed system, changeless as the
laws of the Modes and Persians. She
wanted him to regard her as a model
, housekeeper-to set her very high and
at last find her indispensable. Her re-
ward would come upon that day when
he asked her to be his housekeeper for
life. His hour must strike sooner or
later His heart would demand its
right. That school-bOy love of which
he had told her when Desiree came to
live with them-this paternal liking for
the child of Hortense-were trifes
which gave her no uneasiness.
For the first time since leaving the
paternal roof, Arnim had kept the
Christmas feast. Desiree, who had for
long weeks been full of secrets, pre-
pared the Christmas tree, laden with
inexpensive gifts, most of them the
work of her skillful fingers.
When the doctor, with a warm pres
sure of the hand, and in a voice
choked with emotion, tried to express
that gratitude for which words were
too poor, she said:
The thanks are all on my side.
You have given me a home. Never,
since my mothers death, have l been
so happy, SO free from care, as now.
Where shall | be next Christmas? l
often ask myself. can not be so dis
tant from you that my thoughts will
not center in this dear refuge"
"God willing, you will be here,
Desiree," replied the doctor. " Your
studies are only just begun"
Spring came earlier and more radi-
ant than ever, so thought teacher and
pupil. The garden threw off its win
